Statthocker: German ingenious eco design chairs

The designers of the Statthocker Stools, Bastian Demmer and Oliver Bahr, can give you plenty of reasons why their Statthocker desing lamps are something really great. One of the reasons is that the basis of the Satthocker are energy-wasteful German streetlights from the 1960s, so there have been great benefits to removing them and replacing them with more efficient sources of outdoor illumination. Another reason is that these gently tapering cylindrical chairs required very little fresh material to make. The lamppost toppers were already the perfect height to form ergonomic perches, so the designers simply added circular tops of HI-MACS to cap them and give them color. The Statthocker Stools are stackable and they playfully integrate LEDs to pay homage to their past lives. www.statthocker.de
